The trolling motors on the back of the boat are called crappie brakes. They slow you down when the wind is blowing

Also most of the guys run the trolling motor full throttle on the front scouting for the big ones. Then the rear trolling motors slow them down without having to turn or reverse the front trolling motor possibly scaring the target fish.

They released all of them except for the 3.2 lber. He said it was going on the wall.
I saw the guys carry them down to the lake after they weighed.

Those guys can probably catch fish that size most every day now. They wont keep all them fish......atleast I wouldnt.

Wow! I'm starting to feel like the hobby is passing me by...Livescope, 16" screens, multiple trolling motors....I don't begrudge those who are out there doing it, but I'm happy catching them the way I always have, even if most of mine weigh between 1/2 to 3/4 lbs.
